Does anyone else have concerns with the talent level at starting linebackers.  ??  

S Thompson has never been as advertised for a first round draft pick

D Perryman,  I just think he's average at best.  Not very big and gets lost in the scrums

H Reddick ,  had 12 sacks last season. 

 Seems like our weakest corp   

Not at all. I was just thinking last night about how it's a pretty nice unit.

Perryman if healthy is rather stout and physical. I'm quite optimistic about the group. 

I don't really see the Snow is a big talker angle at all. He's just a guy who loves coaching and answers questions pretty honestly without giving out too much. 

That unit overachieved given the circumstances. I assume they don't need to be listed again.

Can you give us a list of reasons why you think lists are stupid?

11.h people take them seriously

But mine would have Sean Payton at the top. Him and Reid together though I think Payton is a bit better.

Lists are stupid

Epic waste of a 7th round pick. 

 

Lol

6th. If you are going to draft a long snapper and not use him, try to stash him, and lose him then it is a waste.

Drafting a LS at all is questionable. But certainly if the above happens

LOL

Well we need to be honest with ourselves. If we want to shed basement dweller status we need someone other than our starting running back to be the defacto leader. Across the league for the majority of successful teams who are in the playoff hunt that lands on the shoulders of the qb. We glaringly lacked that last year and you see where it got us.

Yes, a hall of fame quarterback is desirable. Intriguing analysis.

The area around San Clemente would be heaven without the people.

Lol no it isn't. 

You might need to watch some football games and do some reading if you actually think this. Start with names like Steve Atwater, Brian Dawkins, Sean Taylor if you aren't sure what the position includes.

Remember not long ago when some huddlers were trying to hype this Tommy Stevens guy up? 

I remember a logical thread about him. Clearly you didn't read it. 

He'd get signed and it would be an epic waste of a draft pick. I can't imagine him not making the team.

I'd assume this has happened every year in OTAs

It was sarcasm.

I was clearly agreeing with you. I'm not as dense as most here.

Oh no..they will have to cut someone at the bottom of the roster and it will be so upsetting...may put the season in jeapardy.

Someone who has a statistically very small chance of affecting a single snap verses someone with could have an impact on every game on top of that.

Jacksons true position might be FS with his lack of tackling ability and ball skills.

Tackling ability is more important at FS.

As I think about this, combine his increased reps this year, contract year,  better coverage from the other side and increased pressure from the new DE...oooh shivers.

Better coverage on the other side will arguably put more pressure on him.

Good stuff. I really like Snow personally. 

I'm on the porch drinking coffee.

Hope you're right! We'll see.

It's not my opinion. There various sources that cite Seattle's draft success over the years.

It's nice to see attempts at complimentary roster construction.

Is this illegal?

Incest is illegal. You seem worried.

As good as Julio Jones is, I think the Falcons made out fairly well.  A second round pick, and cleared up a lot of cap space (from what I read).  

Agreed. A second plus is at least fair compensation for a great but declining receiver who isn't a TD producer.

I'm thinking there's something wrong here. Julio went a little too cheaply. Missed what, like seven games last year? 

It's fully within reason that a team up against the cap could come to one of its overpaid, injured and/or older stars and says, "Let's work on this together. You aren't the same you were when you signed this contract. Either we can release you and take the immediate hit(s) or maybe you can publicly ask to be traded and maybe we can pass that big contract on to another team that can afford it/you. Win-win, millions of dollars on the table for you." And maybe a smart guy like Julio bets on himself and agrees to make that tweet saying he wants out and starts the pot to boiling. 

Not saying it happened, but it isn't out of the bounds of possibility. Either way, the NFCSouth's DBs can breathe a sigh of relief.

Why would they want him to fake being disgruntled and demand a trade?  That lessens his trade value.

Desean Watson is fantastic but still has lower winning percentage than Jake Delhomme. The team matters.

Nit pick: Scouting staff isn't technically "front office"

Many teams list their scouts on Front Office directories.
